Sentinels look to develop needed skills

TICONDEROGA - Coach Kathy Tubbs is confident her Ticonderoga soccer team can live up to expectations this fall.

"We have good speed and we're strong at fullback," said Tubbs, the dean of Section VII girls soccer coaches. "We need to develop our passing skills and the ability to work as a team."

The Sentinels return nine players, but success will hinge greatly on their ability to find a goal keeper. With no experience in goal, Kate Mercer is moving from forward into the nets. Megan Campney, who could also see time at fullback, will also line up in goal.
